Belinda - I'm so glad you got some answers as to what happened. We lost our baby at almost 12 weeks too, but unfortunately we don't know what happened (although my FS thinks the 8cm cyst I had on my ovary at the time may have impacted on my pregnancy). Everything appeared perfect at our 7.5 wk scan. I think it would make it easier to cope with if I knew, then I wouldn't be so scared about it happening again in my next pregnancy. Now that they know what happened, I am sure you'll be monitored very closely next time. I hope that is of some comfort to you. Good luck with the not trying to not try! I'd be the same if a break was suggested to us - no way! The sooner that BFP, the better Although I've been whinging that I wouldn't mind taking a break over xmas/new year and starting fresh with ivf in 2007. I have taken clomid this cycle but won't be charting or putting much effort into scheduled bding, so it's going to be a break of sorts.
BW - that was my point earlier although I rambled a fair bit - if it's found that you would be better off doing IVF regardless of your DH's varicocele problems, then naturally there's not much point putting him through the surgery and perhaps this is what your FS was indicating (although not verbalising it very eloquently by the sounds of things ). Particularly if ICSI is of no extra cost to you (that's great by the way, haven't heard that at any other clinic). You sound much more collected now that you've had time to process a few things. I'm sure as the next few days pass, you'll feel better and better. Just take it one step at a time and see how you go with your results etc.
Mako - hope you have a fantastic holiday! I'm going away but not until next week, so only two weeks for us. Hope you survive your crazy weekend with all those family xmas gatherings! Have a great christmas and a relaxing holiday and we'll see you back here in the new year (hopefully with a BFP to report!)
Big to all my other girls.
